DAVESAUNDERSPHOTOGRAPHY

For 30 years as a professional
photographer I’ve worked with
people who want great images of
special events, people and places.
I’ve photographed hundreds of
weddings, written thousands of
magazine and newspaper articles
and I’m author of over a dozen books
on photography, travel and advertising.

I specialise in contemporary, reportage style – as well as more formal – wedding and event photography. I always aim to offer an excellent service with value for money at competitive prices.

As an experienced wedding photographer, my relaxed, non-intrusive approach allows you to relax so I can capture natural spontaneous moments and bring out the best in any situation.

As my customer, you are very special to me. I want to work with you to ensure you have the best possible photographs. I will meet you at a venue of your choice to discuss exactly what you’re looking for, so that you can enjoy the day without worrying about the photographs.

Based in Bath, most of my work is now in the West Country and includes Somerset, Devon, Dorset, South Wales, Gloucestershire, Wiltshire and Hampshire. I photograph events in and around Bath, Bristol, Cardiff, Swansea, Newport, Weston-Super-Mare, Taunton, Radstock, Corsham, Chippenham, Trowbridge, Devizes, Warminster, Salisbury, Swindon, Cheltenham and beyond.

My articles and photographs have been published in The Times, Daily Telegraph, Guardian, Independent, The Week, Daily Mail, Daily Express, Condé Nast Traveller, Executive Travel, Conference & Incentive Travel,Meetings & Incentive Travel, CNN Traveller, Debrett’s International Season, She magazine, The Lady, A Place in the Sun, Octane, Classic & Sports Car and many photography, hotel and inflight magazines.
